Ancillary Text Research

Here is Arctic Monkey's "Favorite Worst Nightmare" digipak design, it is from the indie and alternative genre which will help me when it comes to producing my digipak design. 






The common conventions shown here which I intend to emulate are;


  • Band logo on the album cover
  • Album name on the album cover
  • Consistent design and colour scheme throughout
  • 1 Main image on the cover
  • Track listing on the rear cover
  • Barcode on a rear corner
  • Record label logos at the bottom of the rear cover 
  • Artist and Album name on the spine of the digipak
  • Artwork on inside panels
  • Design on CD


Here is a Stone Roses album release poster,


The conventions of this poster and others of this genre are;

  • Large band logo
  • Artwork from the album it is advertising's cover
  • Music media outlets ratings and comments
  • Record label logo
  • Where the album is being sold
  • Release date
  • Track details
